Superman of the Week: The Original Max Fleischer Cartoon

There is nothing quite like Superman in Animation. The classic Max Fleischer cartoons feature the same voice actors as from The Adventures of Superman radio show, but the movie far exceeds the radio show in excitement.

In animation, Superman can be bigger than life and if drawn well, we can buy it. Radio, it can be hard to imagine the man of Steel’s powers especially if you’ve never seen them before. And with live action, you have to avoid the corny look which nearly every live action incarnation of Superman seems to fall into. The animation here is action packed and incredibly fun.
